Angry A/F ratio problem

have a 2010 tc ss w/ gms1, hahn intake, dejon cp w/ hks bov. the weather is about 33-40 degrees where im at. recently noticed the car would jerk oddly once or twice after shifting into gears. check my a/f ratio guage and the needle is jumping from 12 to 16 and sometimes 18 after shifting into gear, espically 2-4 gear. the issue has been going on for about 5 days now and i want to get your input on what it maybe or how i can reslove it. thanks for any help & advice

bov. Get a block off plate. Do you still have the factory bpv or did you block that off?

You would think it would run pig rich with BOV not tuned in. Metered air vanishes...so ECU thinks there's more air than there really is?

take ur foot off the gas once, it will go up to 30. lol i dont think there is a problem, when u lift ur foot off the gas it will go lean. drive down the highway, giver a little and take ur foot all the way off the gas, it will go up to 30. its normal
